 Fujifilm S5600 Zoom camera award
EISA explained the camera’s success with the following commendations: “The Fujifilm FinePix S5600 delivers a strong performance at an affordable price. The compact, SLR-style body is equipped with a fast fixed 10x zoom lens. Fujifilm’s Super CCD HR delivers excellent resolution, even higher than that expected for a five million-pixel CCD. The innovative Real Photo Technology reduces noise very effectively and allows ISO sensitivities up to 1600. For the enthusiast photographer the FinePix offers aperture and shutter priority metering, as well as a fully manual option.”
EISA Award - European Zoom Camera 2006-2007
This year’s success for Fujifilm follows the naming of its FinePix F10 Zoom as EISA’s European Pocket Camera of the Year at the 2005 ceremony. Adrian Clarke, Fujifilm’s Director of Photo Products, said, “Our mini-SLR style cameras have consistently won plaudits for their combination of high functionality with day-to-day convenience. The FinePix S5600 Zoom fits an incredibly powerful zoom lens into a compact body and is available at a very reasonable price. It’s a camera that opens up new photographic possibilities for amateurs and enthusiasts alike, especially its ability to deliver incredibly crisp images in low light. At Fujifilm we believe increased sensitivity is the new benchmark for digital photography, and it is encouraging to receive an award that recognises our leadership in this area.”
